Push Button; Receive Bacon
Sunday, February 28th, 2010 | General | No Comments
Seriously! There’s a machine that provides this in the Men’s bathroom on the 4th floor of the Bladen Wing. Don’t believe me? It’s right next to the paper dispenser. What is this bacon doing in the bathroom? It’s actually the hand dryer, but the heat waves really look like bacon. Pretty awesome when you’re hungry but studying for a midterm, amirite?

I synthesized it today in Organic Synthesis. There was actual product to conduct a MP and an IR Spectra! Yayayayayayay! No, unfortunately I didn’t take any home since I needed to hand in my product.
The Final Semester
Tuesday, January 12th, 2010 | General | No Comments
For the next semester I’ll be enrolled in the following courses:
CHMC42: Organic Synthesis
PSYC26: Developmental Psychology Laboratory
PHLB08: Ethics & International Development
PHLB16: Political Philosophy: Greece and Middle Ages
In addition to this, I will also have to write my deferred exam for PSYB64, which is Physiological Psychology. More about the courses to come, once I’ve sat through a full 4-hour Organic Synthesis Lab this Thursday.
Not…quite Alive

I had a chuckle myself, when I started this post, and you’ll probably understand why. Although my previous post discussed the matters of coming out of an accident alive, thus being still alive, my laptop on the other hand is quite dead (or as dead as a laptop can be). If you’ll recall I bought my ASUS A8Jm three and a half years ago, and consequently upgraded the memory twice and fixed the hinge problem myself once, and thus it was in working condition up until the day of my philosophy of law exam.
Although it was lunchtime, I had more or less finished what I had intended to study off the laptop documents I had on the course, and had proceeded to purchase my overly priced ‘Chinese food’ from the SCSU building. After a successful consumption of said ‘food,’ I proceeded back to the science wing in hopes of cramming in a bit more studying for the purpose of the exam (which went well, by the way). Then funny things happened.
First, the Asus booted with funny colours, varying from neon glow-in-the-dark green to C-Plus purple. Eventually it settled on absolutely nothing, and then after that it refused to POST at all. I consequently took it apart at home, reassembled it and to no end could I get it to go anywhere past POST (which also means no access to bios).
So with that being said, I’d like to thank my ASUS laptop one more for its faithful service to me, for my competitive CS:S matches, my gaming hours with friends on TF2 and L4D (esp. @ Addonelam’s), displaying those ridiculously complicated diagrams for organic chemistry, reading FML which was replaced by MLIA, countless hours of eventful MSN and GTalk convos (you know you were involved!) and playing awful Naruto anime episodes.
Still Alive

Last month I was involved in a car accident, which involved in a write-off for the vehicle I was driving. Today I’m happy to say that things have all worked out with little to no consequences to everyone else that may have been involved (mentally, physically or financially). If there is something I’m thankful for this Christmas, it is the very essence of my life that I still currently in possession of. If you must know the details of the event, feel free to ask if you believe you’re an individual I will discuss this with.
And yes, I’ve been driving again. I actually drove again 48 hours after the accident itself. Take that!
ZING!

AT&T did not file this lawsuit because Verizon’s “There’s A Map For That” advertisements are untrue; AT&T sued because Verizon’s ads are true and the truth hurts.
In the final analysis, AT&T seeks emergency relief because Verizon’s side-by-side, apples-to-apples comparison of its own 3G coverage with AT&T’s confirms what the marketplace has been saying for months: AT&T failed to invest adequately in the necessary infrastructure to expand its 3G coverage to support its growth in smartphone business, and the usefulness of its service to smartphone users has suffered accordingly. AT&T may not like the message that the ads send, but this Court should reject its efforts to silence the messenger.
This is Verizon on AT&T.
Fringe: Season 2

Outside of watching Glee on Wednesdays (Fox), there’s also a show I catch on Thursdays after my rather bland Physiological Psychology course; that show is Fringe. If you’re into Sci-Fi and appreciate all the works by J.J. Abrams (The new Star Trek Movie, Alias, The Office and Lost) and enjoy stuff like X-Files and The Twilight Zone, you should check it out before Season 2 advances too far!

Sunday Standards

I think it’s due time that I actually go. There’s nothing like 4 rounds of Swiss to truly test this! Also, I am still looking for diabolic tutor sleeves.
-edit-
So for those of you who have absolutely no idea what I just said, recently I’ve picked up Magic: The Gathering as a (rather expensive) hobby again. For a while now I’ve been building and tweaking decks to take them to competitive play. Constructed play happens to land on Sundays at Dolly’s (name of the store, location is pretty irrelevant). But the significance is that now that my decks are rather viable at a competitive level, I’ll be taking them to actual competitions (for the sake of winning, and perhaps making use of my DCI ratings a year from now, when Grand Prix 2010 will end up in Toronto, Ontario).
For those of you who do know what I am talking about, I’ll be taking a shot first with a BU control mill deck. Yeah, you might be wondering why I don’t play any W in this deck. It’s simply because I don’t want to run 3 colors, and I definitely want to be running mind funerals.
Two other viable decks that I will run in later weeks include both a mono white soldier deck as well as a vampire combo deck (life loss + sanguine bond ftw). These two decks are probably slightly more consistent than the BU mill, so that is why I will be testing it first in a competitive environment.
